Hydroquinone; A Novel Bioactive Compound from Plant-Derived Smoke Can Cue Seed Germination of Lettuce
Plant-derived smoke has been known to play an important role in distribution and growth of vegetation. Using a proficiently designed furnace, we extracted smoke from the leaves of four plant viz. Helianthus annuus,Aloe vera,Ginkgo biloba, and Cymbopogon jwarancusa. Smoke dilutions obtained from these plants were obtained in different concentrations to identify potential lettuce growth promoting...
متن کاملButenolides from plant-derived smoke: natural plant-growth regulators with antagonistic actions on seed germination.
Smoke plays an intriguing role in promoting the germination of seeds of many species following a fire. Recently, a bicyclic compound containing a condensed butenolide moiety, 3-methyl-2H-furo[2,3-c]pyran-2-one (1), was reported as a potent germination promoter from plant-derived smoke. In this study, a related butenolide, 3,4,5-trimethylfuran-2(5H)-one (2), which inhibits germination and signif...
متن کاملStimulation of lettuce seed germination by ethylene.
Ethylene increased the germination of freshly imbibed lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. var. Grand Rapids) seeds. Seeds receiving either red or far-red light or darkness all showed a positive response to the gas. However, ethylene was apparently without effect on dormant seeds, those which failed to germinate after an initial red or far-red treatment. Carbon dioxide, which often acts as a competitive ...
متن کاملAn effective system to produce smoke solutions from dried plant tissue for seed germination studies1
UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY An efficient and inexpensive system was developed to produce smoke solutions from plant material to research the influence of water-soluble compounds from smoke on seed germination. • METHODS AND RESULTS Smoke solutions (300 mL per batch) were produced by burning small quantities (100-200 g) of dried plant material from a range of species in a bee smoker att...
متن کاملStimulation of Lettuce Seed Germination by 6-(Substituted) Purines.
Presoaking several varieties of seed, especially lettuce, in various 6(substituted) aminoand thiopurine solutions has been found to increase their rate of germination (3, 5, 6). Recently it was also reported that these purine derivatives are synergistic with gibberellin in inducing these biological responses whereas gibberellin alone was only moderately active in stimulating germination of Earl...
